Kaplan: $299 or $418

I payed 318 for the complete due to them giving a discount to excelsior grads. Maybe they have a discount for you or your program.

I took Kaplan, the complete version with the Qbank questions and they are very helpful. The reason that I liked it was because you can do the questions online and afterwards it tells you what you need to work on. The Qbank has around 1150 questions or so + a few hundred from the rest of the package from Kaplan. I did all the questions because it helps you to become familiar with the way questions are asked in Nclex. I can say that doing all the questions helped a lot and at least for me, without the Qbank, I don't think it would of helped me as much. If you are able to, do the Kaplan complete.

With the complete, you can stream the test taking strategy video and the content review which briefly reviews topics that you may see on the NCLEX. When I was studying for NCLEX, I began by just doing the q bank questions and my scores were not that great. When I started reviewing the content my scores improved. If you feel you are really strong on content, then you may just want to buy the q-bank. Otherwise, the content videos on kaplan may be really useful to you. Hope this helps. I took the Kaplan complete with the classroom sessions as well. I did all the q-bank questions plus 6 of the question trainers and i passed with 75 questions. Think of it as an investment.

I used Qbank for 299 and passed the 4th time. It was like nclex. I used Saunders book and CD then took Kaplan for 10 days.
